Assuming that you are asking about fuel injection, fuel injection is an alternative to using a carburetor to get the fuel to the cylinders. There are several different types of fuel injection. Probably the three most common are throttle body fuel injection, port fuel injection and direct fuel injection. Throttle body fuel injection uses something that looks a good deal like a carburetor but has one, two or more electrical operated solenoid valves that spray a metered amount of fuel into the incoming combustion air. Port fuel injection is similar but the fuel is injected into the intake manifold port of each cylinder. Port fuel injection can provide improvements in emissions, fuel economy and performance if done correctly. Both throttle body and port fuel injection are low pressure systems. Direct fuel injection injects the fuel directly into the combustion chamber and is a high pressure system. Direct fuel injection can provide even more improvement in emissions, fuel mileage and performance and is becoming more and more common in passenger vehicles.

As a further note, most, if not all, compression combustion (like a diesel engine) engines use high pressure direct fuel injection.

What is DI?

DI means Direct Injection. Diesel engine depending on combustion categorised in Direct injection or InDirect injection Engine. Direct Injection engine combustion takes place directly above the piston. But indirect injection combustion initially takes place pre-combustion chamber and after transfered to above piston.DI engine more fuel efficient, easily start in cold condition, But Noise more.


How do you prevent fuel injection flooding?

You can prevent fuel injection flooding by not pumping the gas pedal when trying to start the engine. Fuel injection systems do not need any additional fuel when starting the engine.

Why misfiring petrol injection engine?

Misfiring on a petrol injection engine is caused due to incorrect ignition timing. As the engine rotates, the timing determines when each piston fires or ignites.

Where is the vacuum in port injection?

With a fuel port injection OR throttle body injection engine, the engine develops a partial vacuum between the throttle assembly and the intake valves. Note that there is never a true vacuum in ANY engine, and when the throttle is wide open, there is very little vacuum.


Where is vacuum in port injection?

With a fuel port injection OR throttle body injection engine, the engine develops a partial vacuum between the throttle assembly and the intake valves. Note that there is never a true vacuum in ANY engine, and when the throttle is wide open, there is very little vacuum.
